Hi Vimal,

Use t-code CV02n i.e. chnage document and delete or add the document and save.

for deletion use the buttons below attachment.Right side first is for deletion and then 4th from right to browse and upload.

I hope this will resolve your query.

Hi....

I want to delete the files using code.....

[Former Member]

for selective deletion, use bapi_document_change2, pass deletevalue = X for the file in DOCUMENTFILES table

[former_member574468]

Hi...

It is working. But if i delete the file for that particular Document thro code using BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2 Func.Module, It should delete the same in CV04N also. But it is not happening now....

Plz help me to comeout from this....

Hi,

Could you please explain the behavior in CV04N a bit more detailed. Because this is only the document search and here normally no original files should be deleted from the document info records.

If you want to delete the whole document info record you can use BAPI Document.DeleteDirect. This BAPI will delete the whole document info record from your database table DRAW and afterwards this document info record won't be found with transaction CV04N anymore.

Best regards,

Dear Vimal

Follow these steps:

1. Go to CV02N, enter all the details pertaining to your DIR

2. Open the DIR

3. In the next screen, Under Originals tab, you'll see document(s) checked-in.

4. Right click on the document, select delete

OR

Click on the document you want to delete, & click on the delete button.

5. Save the DIR.

That's all. Remember this action would remove original from the DMS server.

Please post this question in ABAP forum. This could be better answered there.

Hi Vimal,

if you want to remove the original in CV02N through ABAP coding, then I think you can only implement BADI DOCUMENT_MAIN01 (method AFTER_READ_DATA) or DOCUMENT_FILES01 (method AFTER_ASSIGN_FILE) where you need to implement your own coding to delete the previous existing original file.

The only further possible solution would be to delete the original manually.
